Tomahawk of a steak at Skirt

Tomahawk of a steak at Skirt

If you like your steaks huge, you will love tomahawks (above), which are huge bone-in rib steaks that weigh more than 1kg.

Skirt rolled out its Jack Daniels dry aged 30 days sher red label MS4-5 tomahawk this week, aged in-house after the Australian wagyu rib is soaked in single-barrel Tennessee whiskey.

It is available only on Tuesdays and a tasting of the first batch this week is promising.The 1.2kg tomahawk ($199 for 1kg) is supposedly for two or three persons, but it can easily feed four if you are having starters and desserts too.

The whiskey permeates the meat, its distinctive flavour making the beef taste rather unique.

But if alcohol-flavoured meat is not your thing, the restaurant also serves a Mayura station MS8-9 full-blood wagyu tomahawk ($388 for 1.2kg).

This boasts better fat marbling (MS stands for marbling score), which results in better flavour, especially for meat near the bone.
